  1. Doesn’t really strike me as a Trump sin.  Think it’s just how the tech timing ended up.

  2. They literally hate government regulations. So logically they should love unregulated capitalism.

    What am i missing?

  3. Why aren’t these data centers building on site power stations where they are making their own energy. At the turn of the century, this was the norm for a lot of factories. These are the regulations we need.

  4. “Taylor Ludwig, a Trump supporter and 35-year-old mother of three, has also resorted to relying on food pantries to help make ends meet.

    When asked whether she intended on voting for the Republican candidate come next presidential election cycle, she said she wasn’t so sure.”

    Oh Taylor, you know you will.

  5. They didn’t vote for it. Just because a politician goes back on his word it doesn’t mean his/her voters should be mocked. If that was the case then most people are idiots who vote for conmen.

  6. “crushed” you should see the European countries that were forced to buy expensive energy. 10 percent is nothing.
